Georgia State Flags

The Georgia State Flag commemorates the national flag of the Confederacy, the “Stars and Bars”. Adopted on May 8, 2003, the Georgia flag became the state’s third flag in twenty-seven months- a national record. Georgia also leads the nation in the number and variety of different flags. From 1956 to 2001, Georgia’s state flag featured the prominent Confederate Battle Flag. This aroused great deal of controversy, particularly prior to the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. The current flag displays two red stripes separated by a single white stripe. A blue canton containing a ring of 13 white stars encompasses the state’s coat of arms in gold. The arch in the coat of arms symbolizes the state’s constitution and is protected by an armed figure dressed in the attire of the American Revolutionary War. The pillars represent the three branches of government. The Georgia Seal includes the words of the state motto: “Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation.”

Our Georgia State Flags are available in both the current and pre-2001 design. The outdoor Georgia flag designed with Carrot Top’s exclusive Beacon Nylon, features a beautiful nylon that is lightweight, yet durable. These flags fly in the faintest breeze and dry quickly. These Georgia flags are the most versatile flags available. The Patriarch polyester Georgia flag, also a Carrot Top exclusive, is designed to withstand outdoor elements with skillfully woven polyester that has the touch and feel of cotton. Our indoor Georgia flags are accented with beautiful gold fringe and may be accented with one of our many flag poles to create a distinguished look.
